SDNAP older adults needs assessment report- Final Report
This report was undertaken to assess the historic and current service dental service provision to adults aged 45 and over, and to forecast what their dental needs may represent when they reach old age. The report has explored what the possible changes in treatment need for older adults may be and the potential impact on service planning and delivery. The report was delayed due to COVID-19 pandemic but the field work for this needs assessment report was conducted before the COVID-19 pandemic. There are also potential implications for the oral health improvement programmes.
